I like Dante's stories, but reading this translation felt more like a chore than anything remotely fun, and I don't have time for that :)

Little word of advice: The first translation that I bought from this book was by Robin Kirkpatrick. At first I thought the reason I don’t understand the book is because of its difficult and complex language. Took me a while to understand that this Robin guy is a terrible translator. His wording and sentences are just ridiculously incomprehensible. Anyway, don’t read this translation. Henry Wadsworth or Henry francis cary are a much better alternative.
